Getting started with Git shell on Windows

Install the git shell

There is a fresh Github gui for Windows as well as many other graphic interfaces, but, git was designed to be used from a shell: remember that it was the version control system that Linus Torvalds wrote to develop Linux.

It is much more expressive using it from command line, and to mock up a gui with all those features and options would be completely insane.

This is a step by step set of instructions on how to use github to contribute to your favourite creative coding project (that is vvvv of course) so you can help, improve it, and maybe add features you need for your own projects.
